Bastard Bucket

What your seeing, is the worlds roughest mock up. '27 Dodge (?), 250 inline six. Just got a '54 Dodge rear end, '50 Chevy truck steering box, '28 Chevy dash, model A grill, '48 Ford front end, frame will be made to model A specs. CAN'T WAIT!!!
Comments, concerns?
Any advice appreciated.


Thanks!

 

dude yo **** don't show

 

Holy






****.

 

really? is that necessary?

 

That's going to handle really badly with no axles

 

Holy **** can mean a lot of things. So yes, absolutely necessary.

Didnt say I didnt like it. Didnt say I did...just said holy ****.

Have a good un!

Its all got to start somewhere doesn't it.

 

You have the vision my child...

The power of your imagination is strong...

Now, go forth, and build,,, a bucket!!!

 

Agreed, and actually I think hes got a pretty good start. More than what a lot of people (myslef included) started with. I would either get another body or get to work on it before I worried to much about anything else. I think it can be turned into a useable part with the proper amount of motivation.

 

those cross members look a little wide and i think that motor mount will get in the way roughly thats what my current build started like

the first pic is what i started with and the last two are where i'm setting now. the next one wont be any thing like this one but its been fun

 

needs black paint and red wheels man!

this has gotta be manson's brother!!

 

I said rough! I'll whip the body into go shape, got it for free. There is a vision, so bare with me. You'll see.

 

Looks cool...flesh it out...devil is in the details, but you have a vision..slide

 

Mike Myers,not Charlie's brother. Although Charlies brother may have been seen in Wayland Mo. last weekend.

 

that was'nt directed at you The Law. it was a general statement about the "rough" mock up. At least he dreams big.

 

Wow! good one d-bag. Maybe I should just write a check and be done.

 

lol got it

 

Got the raw material. Get a radiator before you build that frame, trust me on that one. A model A axle, something out back, and a F1 steering box, and you're on your way.

 

Thanks for the post Richard. I remember seeing your truck buildup a few years ago.

 

Yeah, it has stalled a bit, but it hasn't been that long.

 

dude you should not snap like that when you are still wet behind the ears. To build a car from the start you got is a lot of ****ing work!! It seems easy enough that it only needs this and that and **** a car is born. Its cool that you got **** for free and have a goal but there aint enough checks in the book to be done. You will see "Big Dreams" gr*** hopper. and some day there will be a light and the end of the tunnel. good luck with it.

 

Chill dude, lucky Germ is no longer here..... or went to therapy?
Thai is rough but good start. Keep going mate and above all enjoy it!
